1825réf. 25124London: Thomas Tegg 1825. Twenty-Fifth edition. Hardcover. g. Quarto. XVI 568pp. Uncut. Original paper covered boards. Engraved frontispiece portrait of the author. An "Essay Concerning Human Understanding" is one of John Locke's two most famous works the other being his "Second Treatise on Civil Government". First appearing in 1690 the essay concerns the foundation of human knowledge and understanding. He describes the mind at birth as a blank slate tabula rasa although he did not use those actual words filled later through experience. The essay was one of the principal sources of empiricism in modern philosophy and influenced many enlightenment philosophers such as David Hume and Bishop Berkeley. Book II of the Essay sets out Locke's theory of ideas including his distinction between passively acquired simple ideas such as "red" "sweet" "round" etc. and actively built complex ideas such as numbers causes and effects abstract ideas ideas of substances identity and diversity. Locke also distinguishes between the truly existing primary qualities of bodies like shape motion and the arrangement of minute particles and the secondary qualities that are "powers to produce various sensations in us" such as "red" and "sweet." These secondary qualities Locke claims are dependent on the primary qualities. He also offers a theory of personal identity offering a largely psychological criterion. Book III is concerned with language and Book IV with knowledge including intuition mathematics moral philosophy natural philosophy "science" faith and opinion. This work contains a large folding chart being an analysis of Mr Locke's doctrine of ideas in his essay on human understanding. Some age wear on binding with spine missing and age-toning on covers. Previous owner's signature on free front endpaper. Sporadic foxing on endpapers and very first pages. Binding in overall poor interior in near fine condition. Thomas Tegg hardcover

réf. 135832 June 1821. Florence Casa Quaratesi Piazza Ognissanti. 1p. 4to. Neatly written out in a contemporary hand presumably the recipient's with 'Copy' at the head. In very good condition on lightly-aged laid paper with watermark of 'W D WELLS'. Signature transcribed as 'Wm. Lock'. Lock has just received Murray's letter of 18 May 'giving me an Account of the Sales of my Books and Prints which is so much below what I had reason to expect that I must beg you to apply only One thousand to the Payment of my Debt to my Fathers Executors'. He expects that the 'Produce of the Models' will be 'trifling especially after what they have suffered in packing'. As far as his own paintings are concerned 'Mr. Sotheby will follow the directions of Mr. J. Angerstein - I understand from my Sister Amelia that they were to go into Hertford Street - Mr. Fusiles sic Pictures will of course go with mine'. He assumes that the 'other Water Colour Pictures and the Seasons by Rosalba' were sold with the prints and drawings. He hopes that 'Mr. Robins' the auctioneer George Henry Robins has 'disposed of the Organ which remain'd with him'. He ends by thanking Murray for his 'prompt attention to my concerns' assuring him that he is 'persuaded . that all is done that can be done when you do it yourself or when you direct others'. In a postscript he explains that he has 'put the whole of my direction i.e. address because there is here another William Lock'. 2 June 1821. Florence, Casa Quaratesi, Piazza Ognissanti. unknown
